What amazes me is that based on past and present behavior of Jeff Long why is what she saying difficult to believe. He's said nearly as much himself with the words, "Arkansas is not a win at all cost program". Well, to anyone who can think past one dimension, Long's quote is telling you, me and every other Razorback football fan that the UA athletic department is there for molding minds of young men and women and if they happen to be successful, there's your cherry on top, Hog fans.

I lost all faith in Jeff Long when he fired Petrino (and I don't give a rat's ass about his record this season at UL). Petrino's success here led high level donors to believe that the UA could and were on the path to capture past glory, thus the money came rolling in for the new football operations facility. And a year or so later we all know what happened. No one who has hired Petrino, even UL for the second time has caught any grief, except for the small-time bomb throwers who words sound like a firecracker dud when they hit. I said it in 2012, and I'll say it again, Long was playing to the sympathy of the American public when he had ESPN all to himself on the day he fired Petrino. Those faux crocodile tears make me ill when I think about Long going to his hanky to dry them up. The news cycle then and now last 24 hours. We've had two horrendous shootings the past 3 weeks in this country and America has moved on to something else. Yet the spineless AD at the UA and most of you in that post on this message room were so worried what the country would think of us if we kept Petrino. Speak of being self centered, what would make a UA fan actually believe that the UA would be the constant ridicule of the country if we kept Petrino. Egocentric and gutless wonders !

And now we find ourselves with an AD who must believe we are Columbia University in NYC along with a strange obsession of needing more athletic facilities built. Most athletic businesses have a blue print of winning first, constructing fine new facilities second. "And the band plays on"

Interesting for sure.

I envision big bad Miss Lisa calling and in an uncontrolled manner ranting and raving about everything and anything Razorback related.

After being berated by a loon, the receptionist likely said something like "Ma'am I understand your concern. If you are so unhappy, you could consider following another teams."

At which point big bad Miss Lisa lost her mind.

Not that it is relevant, but neither the BOT nor the administration care about what big bad Miss Lisa has to say.

Funny how the level of trust typically correlates so strongly with the football coach's record.

Ha! That was the funny thing, I was trying to be nice to the ATT. CSR & chuckled at one one point and he just went off. Wished I’d had the foresight to record it. It was really pretty comical. But I’ll spare the DTS listeners the story.

You teach your staff how to handle angry and/or belligerent fans in a professional manner.Telling a supporter to find a knew school to support shouldn't be on the list of things to say.

A good business knows how to handle angry customers.

I once had an irate customer threaten to call the CEO of Hilton hotels on me only because we raised rates at my franchised Hilton property. Low and behold I got a call about a week later from the Administrative Assistant for the CEO of Hilton. She was very nice and said the lady would not take "we have no control over franchisees rates" for an answer. She said the lady got belligerent with her and demanded to talk to the CEO. She was told he was visiting locations in europe that week and was unavailable and that the company had a department for handling complaints. Basically the Assistant had to somewhat rudely hang up on her. Most people know that Assistants are called "gatekeepers" for a reason.

Before someone starts dogging someone to me or publicly and I don't personally know them then I want some sort of proof.
